Kylie: The Complete Discography Rate - Part. 1 The Albums+ (RESULTS! 2nd place & WINNER!)

[elektroxx]

"Step Back In Time" was the obvious choice as the first elimination for the Rhythm Of Love singles.

To quote @nanafan:

The weakest of the ROL singles but the bar is set so high.

Also, No. 24 isn't bad at all.

 

[Sprockrooster]

Step Back In Time performing better than Your Disco Needs You is homophobic. Facts are facts.

 

[madgemad]

What Do I
Devil
Step Back
Shocked

...but all four are gay rights.

 

[Touchofmyhand]

Shocked should have been the first single from Rhythm of Love to get the boot.

 

[Mike]

Shocked should have been the first single from Rhythm of Love to get the boot.

All four should have outlasted Timebomb, Into The Blue and Light Years.

 

[phoenix123]

I don’t understand the love for Timebomb, Kiss Me Once or Light Years.

 

[WhatKindOfKylie?]

I guess at this stage, every elimination is gonna hurt for at least someone.

 

[hawkings24]

Step Back in Time is my least favourite of the four ROL singles, I gave it a 9 because there's just something about it that isn't a 10. The other 3 all got a 10 or 11

 

[P'NutButter]

Hopefully this will please a few of you...

@nanafan - 11 A clear 11 for this era. What an amazing track. This should have been bigger than Can’t Get You Out Of My Head. I love everything about it and was blown away when it was released as a surprise for K25. And she looks sensational in the video too. Stunning.

​

@hawkings24 - 10 Deserved more success.
@Ugly Beauty - 10 I will forever be mad this wasn't on 25th anniversary compilation, I mean imagine releasing one of your best songs 25 years into your career, not everybody has that!
@Untouchable Ace - 10 Awesome, the right BPM.
@CasperFan - 10 Killer and deserved better!

​

@Andsov - 9 What a great song it is.
@Verandi - 7.5 It sounds a bit worse each year that passes by. Very very basic but enjoyable.
@mrdonut - 7.5 What a great Kylie video.

​

@Maki - 7 How this managed to reach top 10 in the Parlophone rate is beyond me. I don't know, but I find this trashy and cheap. Not a bad song, though. Just... basic.
@M24 - 6 It doesn't sound that special to me, though I enjoy it when it comes on. I like that post chorus more than the chorus itself.

[WhatKindOfKylie?]

Timebomb and the poor way it was handled, will forever annoy me. Was convinced it would be a big her for following the ups and downs of the Aphrodite era. How wrong can one be eh?...

 

[P'NutButter]

Also one of my favourite Kylie remixes...

 

[Verandi]

I'm happy Timebomb didn't outlast 10s like I Believe In You and Come Into My World. I seem to remember that happened on the previous rate.

 

[WhatKindOfKylie?]

I feel that Timebomb, was one of the few times when the use of social media and then the release of the song itself, worked out well. Until it flopped of course.

 

[clowezra]

This still blows my mind, every listen still feels like the first. On a night out especially this slaps, hard.

 

[Maki]

Good to see "Timebomb" leave. The post-chorus is my favourite part, but the rest is too monotonous and empty for me to enjoy it more.

Hopefully "Lost Without You" is next to get the boot.

 

[Adora Day]

Timebomb and the poor way it was handled, will forever annoy me. Was convinced it would be a big her for following the ups and downs of the Aphrodite era. How wrong can one be eh?...

It probably really boiled down to the lack of radio support.

 

[Ugly Beauty]

I really like Timebomb but #23 is a decent spot for it considering the people who were calling out for it. the rush of euphoria I feel every time I listen to it is unmatchable.

 

[hawkings24]

I love Timebomb, always have. It's a proper shame it falls quite flat live, that KMOT arrangement, bar the little intro just doesn't quite land properly

 

[elektroxx]

I'd consider "Timebomb" to be one of Kylie's better releases from the 2010s.

It probably really boiled down to the lack of radio support.

Its mid-week release probably didn't help the situation. It did decently in Australia though, peaking at No. 12.

 

[MilesAngel]

I remember watching Kylie perform Timebomb live on The Voice UK and it was a brilliant. Another time Cheryl Cole, who was a judge, performed a song live and it was not very good.

I really liked the song then but it was a big rate discovery and I gave it 8.5.
